Giles Corey: “Oh, Mademoiselle”
Guitarist Giles Corey’s credits include appearances with the likes of Billy Branch, Otis Rush, Syl Johnson, and Bo Diddley. He was also a founding member of the funk/blues/rock& roll powerhouse Lubriphonic; later, he and Lubriphonic’s drummer, Rick King, formed King Corey, continuing in the same roadhouse-rocking tradition but taking things closer to the bluesy root. In 2014, Corey will release Stoned Soul, his first-ever CD as a leader, on Delmark. This track gives a tantalizing preview of what that disk will have to offer: no-nonsense modern Chicago blues, rich in history yet contemporary and forward-looking.
